    The below (without the missing bite) is what I've had in mind, and i would think it to be closer to 500+ than 300.

    That's a bad NY/NJ style slice. The dough is too thick and the cheese too heavy. We used to call those college pizzeria slices. On the plus side, the thicker crust and heavier cheese did a nice job of sopping up alcohol, those kind of pies are always super cheap, and at the end of the day even bad pizza is pretty good.

    But yeah, that I would definitely place closer to 500 than to 300 or 400.

    Thank you to everyone who posted in this. I fine the high counts (500 or more) to be off -- at least for DiMola's pizza -- since we have it once a week and counting at about 350 calories doesn't seem to impact my weight loss. Maybe I'm a little low since I don't eat the outside crust (the dog needs it badly) and because we get veggies on our pies and no meat.

    Anyway, thanks to all. This was helpful.

    First, don't tell me to "relax sparky". That's very condescending.

    It was intended to be condescending.

    If you normally write/speak to others in the tone you used in your reply to me then I'm surprised that you're not more used to it.

    I'm typing on the computer. If you are interpreting a "tone", it's because you are imagining it in you head. I was not projecting one as I was responding to you. For gods sake, we are talking about pizza. I was just giving an opinion.

    I usually use the whole foods pizza entry. It's a similar style.

    Step 1 is recognizing that there's a problem. If you truly don't recognize that there was 'tone' to your original reply, then you might want to reflect upon your writing style. Or not. This is the internet and we're all free to be anonymously tough anyway. Agree or disagree, it doesn't really matter.

    A word of advice on the off chance that you care...if you happen to have a history of people making seemingly unprovoked comments towards you or things that you've said, it's you, not them.

    This is the type of approach I use. You can find calories for pizza from Whole Foods/Domino's/Pizza Hut/Papa John's/etc. Just use the one that seems the closest to the pizza you're eating.

    Wow, you have taken this way too seriously. Again, there was no tone given to you. You are interpreting that. I wish you wouldn't. And no, I don't get unprovoked comments towards me. So I think this one is you.

    If you often find yourself perceiving "tone" that's not there. The problem might be you.

    This thread makes me happy. After 8 years I finally had "ny pizza" and it was the best 500 cal I've had in a long time.

    True. The problem is probably me. Same as the problem is probably you and the problem is probably everybody posting on the internet. We're all inconsequential to each other and are here just to kill time and to try and appear smarter than we probably are anyway. Might as well keep things spicy.

    I had a slice in NYC yesterday. I logged 400 calories because it was small. It was NOT like the slices I had as a child/teenager in NYC. On yesterday's slice, first of all it was smaller. Secondly, it was not Italian in terms of the spices (sauce), third did not have the oil or the same kind of cheese, and fourth, the dough was much thicker than what I used to eat as a child in Queens. I got this slice in Manhattan, so that could be part of it! Very few authentic Italian pizza places still exist in Queens. The best pizza back then was in Queens and Brooklyn...
